INFORMAZIONI SU QUESTO EPISODIO
Eric Rollins sits down again with Jim Polsgrove, Republican candidate for California Assembly District 31. Polsgrove is a Fresno native and retired City of Fresno public works supervisor (right of way and special districts) who says he took close to a thousand items to the Fresno City Council and never had a staff recommendation overturned.District 31 is entirely in Fresno County: southeast Fresno and Sunnyside, Sanger, Parlier, Selma, Fowler, Orange Cove, Riverdale, Raisin City, up to the city limits of Reedley, Kingsburg, and Caruthers. About 400,000 people. Agriculture is the engine. The problems are not the same in Parlier as they are south of Shaw.They cover:Why business owners in the district name homelessness firstA Blackstone barbershop that relocated after 12 years because of encampments in the doorwayA man who set up camp in a side yard inside a subdivisionHousing First, the 2013 mental-health funding cuts, and why Polsgrove says you cannot put a broken person under a roof and call it solvedThe homeless spend he puts above $30 billion, and why he wants an auditRepublican turnout in AD-31, and why he says 40–50% GOP turnout changes the mathProp 39 and voter IDFresno County’s Voter’s Choice Act: vote at any voting center in the countySteve Hilton, Golden Together, and why a governor still needs an Assembly benchJobs and employers leaving, the billionaire tax, and the middle classGas tax he puts at about 71–73 cents a gallon versus Virginia at 28 cents, on a billion gallons a monthVehicle registration: his truck at $557 versus a similar truck in Idaho at $62.50 a yearFraud estimates, and his claim that cutting fraud plus reasonable fees could mean a $10,000 check per CalifornianThe Second Amendment, Newsom’s new gun laws, and why he says new laws hit the law-abiding, not the criminalNearly 39 years fixing problems for the City of FresnoSee the car: 1927 Model T T-bucket, 327 Chevy, two fours on a tunnel ram, automatic.
